Ascent ELM System
LEGAL OPERATIONS SOFTWARE - Legal Ops Solutions
The Ascent Enterprise Legal Management system streamlines legal operations, manages legal spend, and easily analyzes all matter and business data to provide extreme visibility into all aspects of your operations to provide real-time insights. With one solution to manage legal operations, teams can save over 10% in legal spend and improve legal performance by up to 65%.
Manage all legal matters’ information in one place, accessible by all parties.
Automate invoice processes, create and manage AFAs, and securely work with all vendors.
Integrate and manage all Legal Hold tasks from within the Ascent ELM system.
View your most critical information in one place, in a way that makes sense to you. SmartView™ analytic dashboards allow you to see all legal data at a glance. Rapidly visualize the critical data you need with graphical displays of Ascent ELM’s advanced data analytics. You can compare matter, spend, and law firm, data on the same view to make truly informed decisions.
Handle ELM tasks directly from your email inbox or any other MS Office program without sacrificing the feature-rich functionality and security of Ascent ELM. SmartLink™ Outlook Integration connects to the tools you use most – email – to easily add documents, create matters, update status notes, and manage invoices. Ascent ELM also integrates with the entire MS Office suite including Excel and PowerPoint to further streamline your work.
Value-based billing scenarios should only be limited by your creativity, not your ELM system. The AFA Wizard™ allows teams to easily create and manage AFAs from within Ascent ELM. Quickly store documents within the AFA record, securely collaborate with outside counsel, and vendors, evaluate AFAS against shadow bills, and manage outside legal spend relative to AFAs – all in one place.
An Enterprise Legal Management system works best when it fits how you operate. Out-of-the-box (OTB) solutions can’t offer the unique flexibility you get from Ascent ELM‘s Flex-System™. Personalize the system to your unique processes and workflows without the expense of software customization. You decide what’s important and Ascent ELM delivers it where you need it.
